The Wrong Turn franchise is a series of backwood horror films, which started with this 2003 film. It was produced by Stan Winston, and the hillbilly makeup were provided by his team.A man named Chris and a bunch of other city people get stranded on a stretch of unused road in the middle of the backwoods of West Virginia. As they try to make their way back to civilization, they encounter inbred hillbillies who hunt them for food as they run and fight for their lives.Rest of the films in the series are: Wrong Turn 2: Dead End (2007) Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead (2009) Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings (2011) Wrong Turn 5: Bloodlines (2012) Wrong Turn 6: Last Resort (2014)It was announced in 2020 that the series was getting a reboot. The reboot sees the cannibals replaced with a self-sufficient civilization who don't actively seek out victims, but aren't very merciful to those who intrude on their land. Wrong Turn (2021) | |

Hillbilly Incest | |
| Wrong Turn / int_1c74e774 | comment |
Hillbilly Incest: The Mountain Men are an inbred Cannibal Clan of hillbillies lurking in the hills. The first film touches only lightly on the inbreeding itself, showing them as grotesquely deformed and showing articles about inbreeding briefly in the Photo Montage over the opening credits. The sequels get into this more centrally, exploring the exact family dynamics the killers have. | |

Idiot Ball: The good guys are four against three; they have just seen the trio is made of serial murderers, who butcher humans, thus there is no reason to go easy on them; the trio is sleeping; the obvious thing to do is to take some of the trio's big knives and stabbing all the tree of them in their sleep at the same time. Instead they try to run away, managing to awake the trio almost immediately. | |
